Question

Just like acids and bases salts can conduct electricity justify class 10th

Answer 1

Explanation:

Acids and Bases exhibit their conducting property only if they are in aqueous solution in which they could completely ionize in water. An acid in water solution dissociates H+ ions. Let us consider the reaction between water and hydrochloric acid (HCl). HCl in presence of water produces H+ ion. This ion cannot exist alone and hence combines with water molecules and forms H3O+. The reaction is as follows:

Base when dissolved in water produces OH- ion. Let us consider the reaction between water and sodium hydroxide NaOH. NaOH in presence of water produces OH- ion.

The H+ and OH- ions contain a free electron that carries the electric charge and thereby conducts electricity.
